After configuring one switch to operate as the CS of a SIM group, additional DGS-3000 Series switches may join
the group by manually configuring the Switch to be a MS. The CS will then serve as the in band entry point for
access to the MS. The CS’s IP address will become the path to all MS’s of the group and the CS’s Administrator’s
password, and/or authentication will control access to all MS’s of the SIM group.
With SIM enabled, the applications in the CS will redirect the packet instead of executing the packets. The
applications will decode the packet from the administrator, modify some data, and then send it to the MS. After
execution, the CS may receive a response packet from the MS, which it will encode and send it back to the
administrator.
When a CaS becomes a MS, it automatically becomes a member of the first SNMP community (includes read/write
and read only) to which the CS belongs. However, if a MS has its own IP address, it can belong to SNMP
communities to which other switches in the group, including the CS, do not belong.
Upgrade to v1.61
To better improve SIM management, the DGS-3000 Series switches have been upgraded to version 1.61 in this
release. Many improvements have been made, including:
The Commander Switch (CS) now has the
capability to automatically rediscover member
switches that have left the SIM group, either
through a reboot or web malfunction. This feature
is accomplished through the use of Discover
packets and Maintenance packets that previously
set SIM members will emit after a reboot. Once a
MS has had its MAC address and password saved
to the CS’s database, if a reboot occurs in the MS,
the CS will keep this MS information in its
database and when a MS has been rediscovered,
it will add the MS back into the SIM tree
automatically. No configuration will be necessary
to rediscover these switches.
There are some instances where pre-saved MS switches
cannot be rediscovered. For example, if the Switch is still
powered down, if it has become the member of another group, or if it has been configured to be a Commander
Switch, the rediscovery process cannot occur.
The topology map now includes new features for connections that are a member of a port trunking
group. It will display the speed and number of Ethernet connections creating this port trunk group, as
shown in the adjacent picture.
This version will support switch upload and downloads for firmware, configuration files and log files, as
follows:
FirmwareThe switch now supports MS firmware downloads from a TFTP server.
Configuration FilesThis switch now supports downloading and uploading of configuration files both
to (for configuration restoration) and from (for configuration backup) MS’s, using a TFTP server.
LogThe Switch now supports uploading MS log files to a TFTP server.
The user may zoom in and zoom out when utilizing the topology window to get a better, more defined
view of the configurations.
Single IP Settings
The Switch is set as a Candidate (CaS) as the factory default configuration and Single IP Management is disabled.
